FTP Account Name With Domain Suffix
Jun 4, 2008
We have several Cpanel account(web sites) with different IP in one box. Then we cut down to one single IP. While as the Cpanel is not availble, I re-configured apache to bind account to domain name , instead of IP as previously configured.
So before when I use a user name like "james" to ftp, it was working, but not now. Now, I have to use james@domain.com to to ftp.
Someone changed pure-ftp setttings somewhere which I don't know how he did it and I actually don't know if he helped or not on this problem.
At least , ftp is working. But I really do want to know the relevancies between these matters.
Cpanel is not available yet ( not licensed ); IP being cut from sereval to one which supples multiple web sites; Pure-ftpd seems needed to be configured.

How do I stop my add-on domain from appearing in the search engine as a sub-domain? For example, it shows up as example.com/test.com. I only want test.com.

I am having a reseller hosting with a host. This host provides private DNS. Hosting provider remains Anonymous. So when some one search for whois they will not know I am running a reseller hosting biz.
Now I am planning to change the hosting provider to another one who provides higher capacity and higher bandwidth but they will not provide DNS. I need to use their DNS.
How do I provide get a my own DNS so that host remains Anonymous?
What I need?

I have a hostee who as part of an out-of-court settlement, needs to change the primary domain they host on. The domain they're switching to is already a parked domain on their account. At first blush, it seems like it would be pretty easy, but now I'm concerned about their email. Both of the principals of the company use Horde extensively for webmail, and as such I have files on the server for their email accounts. What I was thinking about doing is this:
1. Stop parking the "new" domain on the account.
2. Change the account from using the "old" domain in WHM to the "new" domain by modifying the account in WHM.
3. Forwarding email sent to user@old.domain to user@new.domain, in CPanel.
4. Assorted changes on website to account for the new domain - published email addresses, new SSL cert, things like that.
My concern is in how to move the mail files, currently set up to be for user@old.domain, to be readable by Horde as user@new.domain, so it's seamless to the users. We will be keeping the old domain under our control, but not using it to point to the site any more; I just don't want to have to tell them "OK, to get your old email, you have to check this address, and to get new email, you have to check this one."
Would my plan above actually accomplish that? Is there a better way within a WHM/CPanel framework to accomplish what I need without losing email or access to it? What am I missing?

After reading numerous accounts (27 and counting) of people's domains being stolen I decided to investigate the situation more closely. What follows is my personal investigation.
Without jumping to any conclusions as to how all of these domains were hijacked, I gathered the facts and sat back to see where the common denominators were.
All of the domains had GMail accounts listed in whois.
Many of the domains were hosted with GoDaddy
Many of them had Alexa rankings of less than 10,000
While the GoDaddy connection was interesting, the fact that all of the hijacked domains had GMail accounts stood out as the real common thread.
It's still not clear how the hijacker was able to obtain access to the GMail accounts it is clear that using a GMail account for your domain registrations may not be a wise decision. We have seen infectious code on websites designed to either steal cookies or check to see if the visitor also has GMail opened in another window.
A few cases involved visiting a webpage while GMail was opened and the webpage doing a POST to a GMail interface and injecting an email filter into the visitor's GMail settings.
Typically the injection would include filters that would automatically skip the inbox and forward emails from register.com, godaddy.com and dreamhost.com to another GMail email account.
Then with forwarding set and knowledge of the registered email address, the hijacker would have use GoDaddy's website to obtain the customer number, which requires a verification email. Armed with that information, the hijacker would go back to GoDaddy and have an Authorization Code for password reset, sent to the registered email address.
The password would be sent to the email address, which would be forwarded to the hijacker and then they could move the domain to another registrar, change the website and benefit from the traffic to that website.
Or in some of these recent cases, the hijacker asked for $2,000 in order to "give" the domain back.
How did this happen?
Creating a filter in your GMail account sends a request to the GMail server farm. The request is an obfuscated URL with each section identifying the filter, the account, etc.
Many of the parameters passed in the URL can be generated accurately but one parameter needs the cookie from the account holder's computer. They can obtain this quite easily with any general cookie stealing technique (there are many).
What can you do?
For starters, this isn't the first exploit of GMail accounts. I would switch all of my domains to be registered to a different email address.
Secondly, I would pay the extra money to have your domain information listed as Private. This way your contact information will not show up on whois searches. GoDaddy offers Protected Registration if you're already listed with them.
Third, if you do use GMail, check your filters often. And check your deleted items as well. You never know what you might find in there.
Anyone here have any stories to share about domains hijacked?

I have a VPS account with WHM/Cpanel console access. I have three domains that I am trying to setup. Within WHM I have setup three different accounts, one for each domain. I am able to login to the cPanel for all three accounts. This also created a new web directory for each domain in /home/domain_name/public_html/. I have placed my default index.php in all three public_html with the same permissions. But only 1 domain is working the other two are not. What am I missing? I have confirmed that all three have the correct DNS servers with godaddy and I can do an nslookup on all three. My provider told me to share the IP so that is what I am configured as..

I have an account on an older server. Its plesk.
But now that I pointed the domain I can no longer access the old server from the web.
So this is my shared ip:
66.235.201.136
Now there are about 10 domains on the IP.
what would my URL look like to access one of those accounts in plesk in the browser?
66.235.201.136/~rgratitu
I've tried the above and it doesn't work.

I have several domain names and I pay for hosting for each domain name. Each domain name gets little traffic, uses little bandwidth, and little storage space. I would like to pay for hosting once and share the bandwidth and storage space amongst the multiple sites. Do you know of a hosting company that offers this? I suppose it would involve having one hosting account and multiple IP addresses that resolve to different folders in your account?

I know this question has been asked before but I tried the solutions I could find on net but not total success.
So, I have a shared hosting a/c with a domain(say www.xyz.com) pointing to it ..
Now I want a second domain (www.secondsite.com) to point to www.xyz.com/secondsitefolder
There was this article that says to use 'ZoneEdit' [url]how-to-...ting-aaccount/
And it works but the problem is when someone types www.secondsite.com in the browser, the browser url changes to www.xyz.com/secondsitefolder
Is there someway to stop tht browser url change or what's the correct way to have 2 domain names point to one shared hosting a/c.

Now that I am on a VPS, I have a handful of addon domains (linked to subdomains) that I want to move to individual Cpanel accounts.
Is there any shortcut to doing this (moving DB's, emails, etc.), or do I just need to create the cpanel account, recreate the emails, restore the DBs, etc.?
